When a document, such as a quote, order, blanket order, invoice, return order, or credit memo, has been submitted for approval, Microsoft Dynamics NAV sends it to the first approver in the sequence of approvers. As soon as this person has approved the document, it is automatically sent to the next approver, and so on, until all approvers have approved the document.
If you have been set up as an approver of specific documents, you can see a list of the documents sent to you for approval in the Approval Entries window.
If you determine that the document must be Changed or Rejected, you can also change the status from this window. When the source document has been approved, Microsoft Dynamics NAV updates the status for the approval entry from Open to Approved. There are two paths for document approval notation: Document Status and Approval Entry Status.
If a document (a quote, an order, a blanket order, an invoice, a return order or a credit memo) that is sent to you for approval does not meet the criteria for approval, you can reject the document.
To reject a document
When the source document has been rejected, Microsoft Dynamics NAV updates the status for the approval entry from Created to Rejected. If the document has been set up to require more than one approver, then, if just one approver rejects the document, the document's status is updated from Pending Approval to Open. The document creator can modify the document and then request approval again.
